Our Solar Power System allows obstruction lights to run with free, renewable energy from the sun. The system is designed as a compact, all-in-one solar system, completely self contained for easy installation. The high efficiency, compact design provides end users with a lightweight, maintenance free power solution, requiring minimal surface area for installation. The system is ideal for remote airstrips where hard-wired infrastructure is unavailable. Every system is custom designed for a specific location to ensure years of trouble-free, solar powered service.
Advantages:
Decreased Costs
With zero electricity costs, simple installation and almost no maintenance, the system quickly realizes long-term cost savings.
Experience = Reliability
With over 25 years experience in designing solar power systems, our solar experts will ensure a system that operates reliably, regardless of the installation location.
